The X-Ray Laboratory of the State Research Center L.
Karpov Institute of Physical Chemistry employs highly qualified scientific
personnel and operates one of the most powerful in Russia unique set of
modern X-ray diffractometers both for single crystal (Syntex-P1, Nicolet-P3,
Enraf-Nonius CAD4) and powder diffraction (URD, Germany).
The laboratory is capable to perform all kinds of
X-ray analytical jobs for any powder mixtures including both qualitative
and quantitative analysis. Also we can solve the crystal and molecular
structures of any single-crystalled substances including new natural products.
The experiments can be done at different temperatures
(both low and high). Besides the laboratory staff is engaged in methodical
research in X-ray analysis, crystallography and crystal chemistry. A precision
electron density distribution analysis is also possible. We have elaborated
our own experimental programs (profile analysis, thermal diffuse scattering
etc.) which could be available upon request.
The bona
fide members of the International
Union of Crystallography might be involved in the teaching students and
trainees all the kinds of X-ray analysis and chemical and physical crystallography.
